How can i replace 0 and nulls in a report in tabular format to hyphen ( - ) . I can get it done by converting the number to character . But i need it to be in the number format.

If you look at the help in the column properties where you can set the formal, you see the syntax to be used.
It's a typical <positive number format>;<negative number format>;<zero/null format>
You can't set a custom format for a not existing value, so if your cell is empty and not NULL, the format will not apply.

it is null

Actually a quick correction: the custom number format (https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E29542_01/bi.1111/e10544/format.htm#BIEUG13084 ) use the 3rd parameter for NULLs, not 0.
Therefore you need to adapt the formula to translate 0 into NULLs first if you want it to match the 3rd parameter of the custom number format.

I guess I saw something similar in MOS, there are a bunch of docs about export to Excel, worth having a look.
